Village Montessori Center

Love this school. Love the teachers. Love their philosophy.

What can I say about this school except that it was the best decision my husband and I made when enrolling both our daughters. The staff is wonderful! I’m amazed how much they learned. They never cried at drop offs, which was the best feeling a parent could have.
The only thing that saddened us was leaving this year and the only reason we did was because my daughters are beginning a dual immersion program.
If you are contemplating this school, I could honestly say it’s a great school. We never had any issues. The staff is very organized and always on top of things. We look forward to visiting in the near future.

My son was already going to a different daycare. I just felt the other daycare never really gave my son the attention or affection that he needed.
When I took a tour of the school I was impressed with the cleanliness, the atmosphere of the children, and most importantly the passion the teachers had for their students. My son grew in so many different ways. He made lots of friends, he loved his teachers, he even loved to learn. Everyday that I would pick him up he would learning something new. He would be SO excited to share with me. There was not a time my son wasn’t happy. The school was very in touch with the children’s needs and the parents as well. Thank you Village Montessori for all you have done!

Village Montessori has been wonderful for my 2 kids. We’ve been attending the school for three years. Both my kids started reading at age 4 and are now reading above 1^st grade level. My six year old who is going to kindergarten at VM is even doing cursive writing! My kids teacher keeps them engaged, excited about learning and provides parents a monthly newsletter about the upcoming month lesson plans. I’ve been very happy with Village Montessori and their educational curriculum. My children love going to school and continue to amaze me with their knowledge of math, language, writing, science, art and more.

I have been debating writing a review for awhile, but feel that I would like to contribute to the reviews with my experience. While some seem to have a good experience with this school, we did not. Since being at another school down the street, we have had the opportunity to compare our experiences and can understand why our child has adjusted so well to this new school compared to his first few years with Village. We just wish we would have moved him sooner. Since leaving, we have since come across other friends that had similar experiences and share similar feelings as we do.

The staff here are exceptionally caring and sweet. My daughter has been going here from age 1 – 5, and there’s not a day that she is not excited to go to school. She loves her teachers and her friends! At Village Montessori, she has been taught how to share toys, help others, and clean up after herself, which I am very proud of. This is a wonderful preschool that I would recommend to any parent.

From an educator’s perspective, Village Montessori is a model place for children to learn and grow in an exemplary Montessori environment. The facility, teachers, and extra activities they offer make this an excellent choice for a trustworthy, consistent educational experience for kids from infanthood to school-​age.
The teachers I observed were available and attentive to their groups’ needs, and showed the kind of care, concern, and genuine interaction I’d want for my own children. I have both been a teacher and trained teachers, and this group is top-​notch.
Like the teachers, the rooms and centers are high-​quality. The materials and resources are up-​to-​date and all of the learning spaces are well-​laid-​out, as was obvious in the way groups of children were working at multiple tasks, but without crowding each other. The rooms allow for kids to learn and to be engaged. They are conscientiously designed and so well-​kept; and there’s room for parents, too! They are welcomed as participants in a variety of roles from readers to chaperones for field trips. There are also events for families of all of the children throughout the year.
Even the lunch and food policies are conscientious and help children develop and learn healthy eating habits. Sugar is kept to a minimum, and produce is not only served, but contributed and prepared by children and their families. What a joy!
All in all, my observation yielded a high recommendation for Village Montessori. If I had children in this age group, this is where I would send them. Their time there would more than prepare them socially and academically for elementary school!

Village Montessori has a great teaching staffing. I just wish they would clean up the campus a little bit. Also I wish the front desk/​owners would stop airing out there dirty Laundry. Lastly I’m a little concerned with all there write ups from licensing.

My daughter has been coming to Village Montessori for three years and we have been very happy with our experience. Our daughter loves her teachers and she is thriving in this environment. She has lots of friends and the teachers are very skilled at helping them to develop social skills and conflict management skills.
What we appreciate most is how child-​centered the program is. Eg, Once our daughter grew out if naps they did not force her to continue with them. Our son was forced to comply with schedules of a different chain preschool many years ago. It was so important that we find a school and a group of teachers who would put the child
First instead of force them to fit into silly molds. We were referred to Village and we have stayed her entire preschool years. This is huge because we switched preschools 4x with our son– all chain preschools and we thought we’d get good care but really it was an exercise in compliance to their policies.
The school director has always been wonderful to our family and we have sincerely appreciated the relationship we have with her. She is so sweet and genuinely cares about the kids. I’ve personally observed her in this regard.
If I had to give one negative I would say it is that Food will soon no longer be included in the tuition fee which is a bit disappointing but a pretty minor issue overall.

My daughter attends Village Montessori and absolutely LOVES it! The director is wonderful and all of the teachers truly care about all of the students. I would highly recommend this school to all of my friends and family.
She has been attending now for 6 months and has adjusted very well. They do lots of activities, sing songs, play, go outside, and will follow any routine you tell them too. It’s not easy leaving your child with someone else and I feel very comfortable every time I drop off my daughter. She is smiling when I leave and when I pick her up which is a good feeling to have as a new mom!
This school is the best in the area and if some parents have some personal problems or issues, they need to leave them at home and leave the school out of it.

My daughter has been happy and really thriving since she’s gone here. In one year, we’re amazed at how much she’s learned. But that’s not the only thing that makes Village Montessori 5-​star all the way.
Here a few reasons for me:
— The curriculum is excellent and rooms are clean and setup with so much thought and care.
— All the teachers are really great here; they do a wonderful job of hiring.
— Everyone seems to really enjoy being there which is great to see.
— The school director is very informed, keeps up updated and treats everyone like family.
— The school has a very warm environment.
— The rates are excellent and very competitive from what I’ve seen.
— They use the tuition to really give back as well. We’ve been on several very fun field trips and there’s always something fun happening at the school.
— Communication is excellent.
— They really care!
My younger daughter will be going here as well when the time’s right.

My sons have been going to this great school for a couple of years now. My older son Jake graduated from Kindergarten in June, and really misses the school and its teachers! Miss Jenny and her teachers always went out of their way to make sure he was ahead in his studies, and he’s doing great now in first grade. My younger son Aiden started in the twos room and is now in Miss Amy’s room, for preschool. He is 3, super smart and full of confidence… a testament to this great school and its teachers!

The entire staff at Village Montessori Center is 5 star. They treat my daughter like family. The class rooms are clean & the materials are brand new. I see new materials in the class rooms on a consistent basis. I enrolled my daughter at the age of 3 years old. She is now 5. She is excelling academically. And I’m not one to push the academics at home. The teachers have a way of making learning fun for her. She can’t get enough of it. My daughter is spelling 7 letter words, reading (a little) and adding & subtracting. The school also teaches the children respect & responsibility. The #1 thing I like about the school is that my daughter has loved every one of her teachers & has asked if they can come live with us. This alone is priceless.

Our daughter has been at Village Montessori since 3−½ years old and she is now 5 and in the kindergarten program. She is doing extremely well there and has thrived both socially and academically. She is very proud of her academic achievements and we are thrilled that she loves it so much. She loves going to school every day. The school offers some extracurricular activities such as dance, sports, and music.
Great place to give your kids a solid foundation, academically and socially!

My 5 month old daughter has only been at Village Montessori for about a month and half, but I love it already. Having to put my daughter in child care was a heartbreaking decision for me as I would’ve preferred to stay home with her. Since this wasn’t an option, I researched local Montessori’s. I was very pleased with the tour and my first interaction with Mrs Jenny, the director. My family practices attachment parents and it was refreshing to know they would respect this and care for my daughter in a similar fashion. Since the first time I dropped her off, she’s been happy and is nothing but smiles for Miss Crystal and Miss Marisol in the mornings. It’s unfortunate I have to remove her because we are moving to Texas for my husbands job. I can only hope to find a program half as good in Houston! I highly recommend Village Montessori Center!

My daughter has been attending Village Montessori for almost a year now and my wife and I love it. We were referred by two friends who’s kids are still here. My daughter goes 3 days a week and she loves her teachers, activities, kids and the events that they do. The cost of tuition is about average for daycare/​pre-​school these days but you definitely get more here than you would anywhere else. Before VM our daughter was in a home daycare that was also great but it’s just better and more reassuring knowing that my daughter is receiving the best treatment possible with a pre-​school that has safety, learning and fun all incorporated into their program. We have and will continue to refer friends, family and anyone else to Village Montessori! Thank you!

My daughter has attended Village Montessori Center since the first week of January of 2012. She began attending Village Montessori Center since she was 3 years old. She had previously attended a bigger school before where I feel like she was lost in the sea of children. As soon as I stepped into the office at Village Montessori and did my tour, I realized the size was perfect for us, the staff was so warming, and comforting, the class setting was perfect for what my daughter needed, more structure. The Director, Teachers and Staff helped her transition from one school to another so well. The love, attention and comfort they gave her was incredible. My daughter has learned so much while attending this school. Its so fun to see her recognize what she’s learning outside of school and her showing me what she’s learned. Her confidence in recognizing letters, there sounds, wanting to try and read to me, learning about the human anatomy, counting, number recognition, she tells me about the countries or culture they are learning about, there is so much more too. She is always so excited and enthusiastic to share with me. Watching my daughter grow in her education is incredible, I am so thankful for this school and the passionate teachers there that are so eager to help the children learn. The communication between parents and the school is so awesome. If my daughter is having a rough morning, I have had the teacher follow up with me through the director to let me know how my daughter is doing. I am always informed of what is going on at the school, what awesome programs they offer the kids and recently even parenting seminars. The love and care put into this school for the children is just so incredibly awesome.

I was a stay at home mom for over two years with our daughter. I was offered a new job and was nervous to take it because that would mean I’d have to put my child into daycare. My husband and I decided we’d check out a few schools to see what our options were. After going to several schools and being highly disappointed we stumbled upon Village Montessori and decided we would step inside and check it out. It was probably one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. The teachers and staff there are so caring and sweet. Ms. Meagan has been such a positive role model for my daughter. My daughter has become so much more outgoing, her education has expanded and she has a big smile every time I drop her off and pick her up. It’s clean, they serve healthy food and it’s safe. If you’re looking to start your child into daycare or preschool I highly rec commend this school!!!

My daughter has attended Village Montessori since she was 5 months old. (She is now a year & a half). It’s so hard especially with your first baby to decide what is going to be the best care for your child. This school has been amazing!!! The teachers are all so nice & easy to talk to. They give you a full report of what your infant does every day, how much milk she drinks, etc. It’s like I’m able to spend the day with her.
They do tons of fun activities & art work & I can tell my daughter is truly loved & cared for while she is there. The best part of my day is going to pick her up & finding her playing with the other children or sitting with the teacher reading books.
The school is safe & clean & we’re so happy to have found such a great place to take our daughter every day.

My son has attended this school for one year now. I could not be happier with my decision to enroll him here. From the beginning, they have been very accommodating and caring to my son. He was very shy and nervous to begin school, he literally cried for months everytime I dropped him off. But his teachers would hold his hand and comfort him no matter how many times it took. Now, I’m lucky if I get a kiss and a hug goodbye!
He has learned so much this past year. The day he came home and showed me that he could write his name, blew me away. He is 3 ! And the teachers are able to always answer any questions I have about what my son did that day or tell me a funny story about something he did. Socially, he has learned to like new foods, how to interact with other children, follow directions, and take turns/​share.
They make the best little projects, so meaningful and heartfelt. Anytime they have an event, it is fully photographed and online for us parents to view within the same day! I truly appreciate that! It makes me feel included and I can share in the experience with him.
It’s hard as a working parent to leave your kid for 8 — 10 hours a day. But I am so happy with this school and know that he is being cared for just as I would hope.
